Hi folks,
During the last discussion about glamor’s plan in this list, we got a conclusion that to extract glamor from xorg and
build a separate glamor library to be used by any possible DDX driver. And Eric suggested I can incrementally
merge glamor into Intel video driver. Now here is the update.
The separate glamor library is at : git://people.freedesktop.org/~gongzg/glamor,it provides two interfaces:
1. glamor : Rendering library. All the rendering functions are implemented in this package.
2. glamor-egl : EGL support library. This package provides functions to create and initialize OpenGL/EGL context.
There are a little bit more details to introduce glamor in the README file.
The Intel video driver to merge glamor is at git://people.freedesktop.org/~gongzg/xf86-video-intel’s “glamor” branch.
I just started the merging stage. Only finished 3 patches to enable glamor in UXA code path. Currently, only migrate
fillspans and polyfillrect to glamor. Will continue to migrate the rest functions.
I will submit the patches to intel-gfx mail list soon.
